Hi Al

If it's only the first x number of rows you are processing, how about the following

select yval
from test_table
where rownum < (x number of rows to fetch) order by yval

where (x number of rows to fetch) is a numeric value

Alternatively you could use a pre-compiler such as PROC*C and utilise the host array facility
